Straight-laced Cole Risso has longed for his sister's bohemian best friend Gwen since he first laid eyes on her as a kid. Now, as future patriarch of the Risso Family, he's expected to marry well. A free spirit and unconventional daughter of a pot-toking hippie hardly qualifies.

When one night of giving into temptation ruins them both for any other, Cole and Gwen are faced with a decision - love the other enough to let them go, or defy family expectations and fight for their hearts' desires. No matter the decision, their choices have the power to destroy all they hold dear.
